Home Renovations in Lake Country

Between Kelowna and Vernon, Lake Country has grown from orchard town into one of the valley's most sought-after places to live. We help homeowners in Winfield, Okanagan Centre, and Carr's Landing bring older homes up to the standard of the view outside their windows.

From lakeside cabins becoming year-round homes to newer builds that deserve custom millwork and proper storage, our team manages the full scope: planning, District of Lake Country permits, construction, and finishing.

Lake Country holds two distinct kinds of project. The first is the older lakeside cabin or cottage being converted to a year-round home, which is rarely a finishes job. These properties often need insulation brought to current standards, heating systems replaced, and electrical service upgraded before anything cosmetic makes sense. Budget $2,500 to $6,000 for a panel or service upgrade alone, and expect the mechanical work to consume a larger share of the budget than the visible finishes.

The second is newer construction in Lakestone and the developments along the hillside, where the house is structurally sound but delivered with builder-grade cabinetry and no storage. Custom millwork is the usual answer here: a proper entry with lockers, a primary closet built out properly, an office wall, or a kitchen where the uppers actually reach the ceiling. These run $6,000 to $28,000 per built-in and take 8 to 12 weeks from measurement to installation.

Carr's Landing and Okanagan Centre sit far enough from the highway that trade scheduling matters more than it does closer in. We front-load material deliveries and stage trades in longer blocks rather than short daily visits, which keeps the schedule tight and keeps costs from drifting on travel time.
